Windhand LP Due in March; Tour with Pilgrim & Natur Announced
You might recall back at the end of September, I hosted a stream of Windhand‘s self-titled debut LP. If you don’t recall that, you should click that link and go listen, because the record is badass. The news came in yesterday that the band will finally be putting it out on vinyl through Forcefield Records on March 21 and touring with Pilgrim and Natur to advance the release. Congrats to the band on working through what was apparently a series of delays. Doom conquers all.
Relatively hot off the PR wire:
Finally the time has come! After myriad setbacks and issues beyond their control, the mighty Windhand have set the release date for their debut LP in stone. On March 21, 2012, their critically acclaimed eponymous album will be available for purchase from Richmond,
VA’s Forcefield Records (with UK/European distribution handled by Mordgrimm).
